Okay Alison your picture icon from environment Canada and queries on the interpetation has inspired me to write a poem (plus I'm kind of bored at work).

It's in the style of a Wuxia poem by Louis Cha so it will sound kind of weird.

Mysterious Traveller

The cloud flies across the crescent moon
Like my sword goes across the cord of your life
Sorrow can't come quickly enough

Albert Yeong, 2008

alright, if you are the average Environment Canada e-visitor, what would you interpret this image to mean?



moon with clouds moving to the right?
or quickly moving clouds?
or cloud cover will eventually hide the moon?
or increasing cloudiness?


what do you think the correct answer is?

Microsoft Vista Speech Recognition Tested. It's like a modern-day Abbott and Costello:

Yeah, that's what I meant. I wrote it down as 7:15..... Wanna meet there at 7?

don't come at 7:30, you'll miss the movie.
It starts at 7:15... so come a little before. ;)

Yay Persepolis! I'm looking forward to it.

Thursday at 7:30 sounds great. I'm looking forward to it!

Sorry Par, got to go to Video games live tonight. Though I really want to see that movie.

There Will Be Blood tonight? 8:45 SEC? Any takers? Call my cell (619-5571).

Thanks to everyone for coming out last night!

Hey, Tony, I found The Falconer:

oh, and just for the record, a head CT is the lowest dose of radiation of all CT scans...

an abdomen ct is 53 times more powerful than a chest x-ray, and a cardiac ct starts off at 67 times more powerful and continues to increase in radiation levels from there...

Wikipedia is such an interesting tool...


oh! and another ct fact, EMI (the record label) produced the first CT machines, and it's all courtesy of the Beatles' royalties. Go John, Paul, George and Ringo!
